[MIoldtimer]

Kids and their toys! LOL  We got maybe 4 or 5 inches here in Alma. It got warm and all melted down to nothing now.

[MIoldtimer]

Well.........if it keeps melting like it has, we won`t. We`re down to maybe an inch in north facing areas.....

Now That's WINTER!

Over here in holland it's just rain rain and rain, I'm fourteen now, and I've never seen a white christmas:(

I'm seriously thinking about moving to america when I see this kind of things...

Great vid!

[doncampbellequipment]

Thanks !, This was just our first snowstorm of the winter . After 19 years of plowing snow I still enjoy it.

[AgentHog]

Have to favorite this one!

[doncampbellequipment]

Now that is my idea of having fun, ha,ha.

[AgentHog]

Sure looks like fun! I bet the diesel smell in the mornin' is nice. :)

[doncampbellequipment]

Your right, just the smell and the sound in the shed of that little diesel engine warming up brings back a lot of great memories . I have a flex exhaust pipe that I connect that runs outside the shed so most of the smell goes outside as it is warming up.

I thought it would be fun to show the front blade attached to the loader arms and how well it stacks snow. The blower is much more efficient though. I stil enjoy pushing a little too .

[trekzilladmc]

Those rear fenders look like Euro style. Did you make those too?

[doncampbellequipment]

I just made the wide rear fenders last winter and I love them. I also put rubber flaps on them , I also designed the brackets for the front fenders as the 5000 series John Deeres were not available with fenders. It reall cuts down on the road salt and slush on the cab windows when traveling down the roads in road gear.

Don you sure have a lot of snow there

and winter is just starting

I like the idea of those wings you put on that blade sure does a nice clean up.

This is a great way to start the winter with a 24" storm . I built the tractor blade to fit on the loader arms and then built the folding wings that go forward for a snowscoop or rear for residential accounts. It has worked excellent now for 12 years of plowing snow with it. It works similar to a rear snowplow truck blade pulling snow away from garage doors.
